About the role

Hotel Bardo Savannah is seeking an experienced Breakfast and Brunch Cook to join the culinary team at Saint Bibiana, our signature coastal Italian restaurant.

This is a primarily AM culinary position, working morning through lunch and brunch service. We’re looking for a cook who knows breakfast—not simply someone willing to work mornings. The right candidate understands egg cookery, breakfast proteins, griddle and sauté execution, proper timing, and what it takes to deliver a polished brunch service when the restaurant is moving.

You’ll work primarily in Saint Bibiana while supporting banquets and other Hotel Bardo culinary outlets as business needs require. Experience in high-volume, upscale, luxury hotel, resort, or chef-driven restaurant kitchens is strongly preferred.

What you'll do

• Execute breakfast, brunch, and lunch menu items according to Saint Bibiana recipes, presentation standards, and quality expectations
• Prepare and cook eggs, breakfast proteins, potatoes, vegetables, sauces, garnishes, and other breakfast and brunch components with consistency and precision
• Work sauté, griddle, fry, oven, or other stations as assigned while maintaining proper timing across multiple orders
• Manage the pace and volume of busy breakfast and brunch service without sacrificing food quality or presentation
• Complete daily mise en place and station preparation to ensure the kitchen is fully ready before service
• Maintain strong knowledge of menu items, ingredients, preparation methods, allergens, and modifications
• Communicate effectively with culinary leadership, fellow cooks, servers, and support teams to keep service organized and moving
• Monitor product quality, freshness, temperatures, portioning, and presentation throughout the shift
• Support banquet production, special events, and other Hotel Bardo culinary outlets as needed
• Assist with receiving, storage, rotation, labeling, and proper handling of food products
• Follow all food safety, sanitation, cleanliness, and workplace safety standards
• Maintain a clean, organized, and well-stocked workstation throughout preparation and service
• Minimize waste and use ingredients thoughtfully while maintaining established culinary standards
• Participate in opening, breakdown, cleaning, and shift-transition responsibilities
• Bring a team-first mentality and step in wherever needed to support successful hotel culinary operations

Qualifications

• Previous professional breakfast cooking experience is required
• Strong knowledge of breakfast and brunch preparation, including egg cookery and proper execution of breakfast proteins
• Previous experience as a Breakfast Cook, Brunch Cook, Line Cook, AM Cook, or similar professional kitchen role
• Experience in a high-volume and/or upscale culinary environment strongly preferred
• Hotel, resort, fine dining, or chef-driven restaurant experience is a plus
• Ability to execute multiple tickets simultaneously while maintaining accuracy, timing, and presentation
• Strong knife skills and working knowledge of professional kitchen equipment and cooking techniques
• Ability to follow recipes, specifications, plating standards, and direction from culinary leadership
• Dependable, punctual, organized, and prepared for early-morning shifts
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced kitchen
• Flexible availability, including weekends and holidays, as required by hotel and restaurant operations
• Ability to safely perform the physical requirements of a professional kitchen environment, including standing for extended periods and lifting, carrying, pushing, and pulling items associated with the role
